Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for June 09, 2016

Don’t often see a “typo” in a supposedly handwritten strip.

Um… okay indeed. Are those spoons still in existence after a little over 80 years?

The “typo” is similar to the perception tricks in the junior high school puzzle books, where an article is placed twice in a phrase, to see if you notice, as in:“BIRDS OF AA FEATHER”… instead of “birds of a feather”.

What typo? I do see “TIME” that appears to be “TINE”, but the M is an M if you magnify it.

Time magazine was a bit of a rag when it first started.

Perhaps the thief wanted to reenact Hamlet Act 5, Scene 1 with Shakespeare’s skull

As Ripley himself noted in Book#2, in Psalm 46 (King James version), the 46th word from the beginning is SHAKE, the 46th word from the end is SPEAR!

“To be missing from from his grave”

There were news articles about Shakespeare’s skull a few months ago.

Somebody ignored the warning: “Blessed be the man that spares these stones/And cursed be he that moves my bones.”

If you mean the anoles, there are also pink ones that spend their time living on the side of my white house.
